43anrael Randall Makes an Earnest Plea
in Favor of Tariff LegislationA Good
Republican Speech Delivered \y Dem
ocratic LeaderMr. McKinley, ot tmio,
Talks Forcibly Against i!ie Mills Bill.
1 WASHINGTON, May 10 In the Hou&a yester
day Mr Randall took the floor in fa\ oic or his
Tariff bill
He opened his speech by referring to the
President's recent message, in which the Ex
ecutive advised Con
press that the surplus
in the Treasury by the
30th ofJune, at the end
of the fiscal year,
would be expected to
reach the sum of $140,
000,000, including prior
accumulations, or
more closely stated,
the sum of $118,000,000,
apart from prior ac
cumulations, over and
above all authorized
expenditures, includ SAMUEL RANDAIA.
inp the sinking fund for the current year
He then quoted from the President's mes
sage, defining his position on the tariff and in
ternal revenue questions, and said that from
the utterance of the President, he understood
the Executive to be adverse to any reduction of
the internal taxes, as that mode of taxation
afforded, in the opinion of the President, "n
just complaint and that nothing is so well able
to bear the burden without hardship to any
portion of the people
The President had further said that the
Tariff law was a icious and illogical source of
inequitable tax and ought to be revised and
uaodiried and the President had urged upon
Congress the immediate expression of this
matter to the exclusion of all others The
President had asserted in substance that the
reduction nocossary should be made by ad
ditions to the free list and by the lowering of
the rates of duty.
In the absence of such language, emanating
from the Executive authorized by the direc
tion of the constitution to communicate and,
from time to time, give to Congress informa
tion on the state of the Union and recommend
such measures as he should judge nec
essary, it was required of the
representatives of the people to
give fair, intelligent and prompt attention to
the suggestions made He had done so He
had ntroduced ind had referred to the Com*
mittee on Ways and Means a bill to re
ducp and equalize duties on imports and
reduce the internal revenue taxes and
some provisions of the bill showed
that the remedies he would apply
were at variance with those recommended by
the President The President sought to pre
vent the continuation of the surplus re\enue
by resorting to changes in the customs duties
only The remedy he (Randall) proposed
was through the repeal of internal revenue
taxes as well as by a full revis on of the
tariff as promised to the people by the Dem
ocratic convent on of 1881 The reduction pro
vided for in his bill aggregated $77,000,000 on in
ternal taxes Those taxes hid always beemthe
last to be levied, and the first to be repealed
when no longer necessary Jefferson
hid en the de ith blow to excise
taxesthat most vicious of all taxesand
among other things he received the thanks of
the Legi&l vtuie of his native State for having
the intern il taxes abolished The first tax also
to be repealed after the v\ i of lbU hid been the
excise which wis recommended by Mad
ison, nnd is the first law en icted undei the Ad
ministration of Monrot The Democrat con
vention of isbldulued that internal revenue
wis i tax and this declaiition iken
conneotion vMth the other eleel uitions of the
plntfoim, clearly est iblished the fact that the
opin on of the convention wa that some
of the internal revenue taxes should
nist go, and that they should all go whenever
a sufficient sum is realized from custom
house taxes to meet the expenses of
the Government, economically adrmms
tered The country was prxcticallj in
such a condition now and the true
responses to these declaiation* were
warranted by the repeal of the internal levenue
tixes to the extent pioposed by his bill He fa
voiednow as he had always done, a total lepeil
of the Internal levenue taxes (applause) In
the bill which he introduced, he proposed
to sweep all these taxes fiom the statute
books except a tax of 5J cents on
whisky, and he would transfer the cola
lection of that tax to the customs ofli
cials if that was found to be piacti

No sectioB of the country possesses greater

ready to develop them. Considering what has

believe that tne iaea that went down in the
convulsions of 1861 will ever again dominate
the destinies of the republic
Mr McKinley (O.) followed Mr Randall. Ho
said all were agreed
that there should be a,
reduction of taxation
the contention was as
to the manner of doing
it All parties also
agreed that the tobacco
tax should be ibolished.
During the last session,
however, the Speaker
had refused to recog
nize a member who
arose to offer a bill to
abolish that tax Such
a measure wo lid have
passed by a tivo thirds
W M'KiNtEY, JR. vote and there would
not now be an immense surplus in the Treasury
to disturb the country Aside from the tobacco
tax there was $40,000,003 still collected ex
cess of the public necessities, and on the ques
tion of how this amount could best bo remitted
was where parties and individuals divided.
This was an issue which left the past behind
and looked only to the present and the future.
It was an issue that appealed neither to race
nor to geographical linesan issue which the
House could discuss and divide upon as each
member should honestly believe was for the
best interest of the individual citizen and the
country at large. He congratulated the country
that it had that issue now, and in that spirit he
welcomed the issue sharply made by the Presi
dent of the United States in this bill.
Proceeding to discuss the merits of the bill,
which he called a revenue fbr tarfl measure,
Mr. McKinley said that wool, a foreign pro
duct, the like of which was produced at home
in quantities large enough to supply the do
mestic consumption, was put upon the free
list, while sugar, a foreign product, the like of
which was produced at home, but in insuffici
ent quantities to supply the American con
sumption, was left upon the dutiable list, and
therefore the tax was added to the cost of
sugar to every consumer in the United States
Wool was placed upon the free list
because the tax upon it would pro
tect the producers of this country The
revenue tariff system put a duty so low as
to stimulate foreign importations This was
conspicuously illustrated in cotton bagsjing, the
duty on which this bill reduced so low as to
prevent their manufacture in this country, as
was the testimony of every manufacturer from
Missouri to South Carolina Take from the
bill the internal revenue provisions, the $24-
500 000 reductions in tobacco and in special
licenses, and you would make not a dollar of
reduction in the Treasury The $27 000 003 re
duction expected to be effected by the free list
would be more than offset by the increased
revenue wh ch v\ ould result from the lower
dut es
Proceeding to point out what he called some
of the ridiculous features of the bill Mr Mc
Kfhley said that the duty steel billets had
been increased from 45 per ent to 03 per cent
ad valorem, theieby causingvin increase of from

tolerated only a a measure of emer
genty and as soon as the occas on tor that had
JpasseJ away they should cease to exist,
jj Mr Randall then began an analysis of the
Mills bill but the gavel fell, the chair an
nouncing The gentleman time has ex
pired There were cries of Go on' but
Mr Mills (Tex) objected Members fiom
both sides of the House crowded aiojnd
the chairman of the Ways and Means
but he was inexorable Finally Mr
Randall asked is a personal favor
that he be given a few minutes more but Mr
Mills replied No, I must draw the line and I
diaw it here' This was greeted with groans
and hisses In the midst ol the confusion Mr
McKinley (O) who was to follow Mr Rindall,
said he would give the gentleman from Penn
sylvania fifteen minutes of his time and Mr
Breckinridge (Ky made a similar offer
Mr Randall then resumed He declared the
Mills bill would bring about inc ilculable mjuiy
to tho industries of America He could find
nothing in the bill which give a leturn for fiee
wool He found many inequalities in it, and
discovered few features intended to relieve the
poor or the laboring man He quoted from
Edward Atkinson to show that since the close
ofthcwai and even since the so called panic
of IS 3, there hid been gieater progress in the
common welfare among the people of the
United States than ever before The state
ments of Mr Atkinson, Mr Randall thought,
seemed to settle the question as to
whether we should adhere to the benevo
lent pohcy"of protecting home mufactures
^onstrated unmistakably the truth that to
wages products must be increased, foi
wages were but the 1 iborers share
iduots. If the tariff itself did not give
iiigiiei wages to the laboiei it did preserve
fp-m foreign competition the industries iroi*
which the laboier received his wages. Re
ferrlng to the fundamental proposition which
had been advanced in this tanff discussion,
that the duties were always added to the price
to the consumer, Mr Randall said that on
articles not produced in this country this
doubtless was true as a general mle
and measurably true on articles part pro
duced in this country, but not in sufflc ent
quantities to supply the home market On all
commodities produced in sufficient quantities
to supply the home market a different principle
controlled In these things competition deter
mined the price and the foreign producers
came into this market where the prices were
fixed and the duties were what he paid for the
privilege of coming into the market Another
erroneous proposition that had been put for
ward was that duties on articles produced in
this country were a tax or bounty which the
epnsumer paid to the manufacturer by which
the manufacturer derived large profits Mo
nopolies, Mr Randall said, existed without
the tariff. The Standard Oil Trust and other
trusts were not protected by it He was for
protection of labor in all States Referring
to the late Secretary Manning's re
ports on economic questions, he said that they
were marvels of honest, conscientious and ef
fective labor He quoted extensively from
them He then took up the criticisms that had
been made oo the metal schedules of
his own bill, and quoted figures
sustaining his position The Mills bill
placed on the free list as so-called raw ma
terials various articles which it would be im
possible to manufacture in this country, ex
cept by reducing American labor to a worse
condition than that of the laborers of Europe.
He asserted that instead of reduoing customs
revenue $54,000,000, the effect would be tocould
largely inorease the revenue, while it would
destroy an incalculable amount of material
wealth. He stated that the bill would give free
tin plates to the Standard Oil Company, and
would impose a duty of 100 peV cent, on rice
It would make free the animals imported by
the gentlemen of the turf, and free statuary to
the millionaire He said he did not think
that the adoption of the committee's
bill would make sure Democratic control
of the Federal Government. He would not
be coerced by party caucus The period of the
political caucus had departed never to return
and yet the party should confer and have unity
if pqssible. In conclusion, Mr Randall spoke
of industrial development in the Southern
States.
to Vi per cent on every pound of wire fencing
that iDClosed the farms of the West The duty
on cut nails ide from steel billets was re
duced 25 per cent, while the duty on raw ma
tenal vv as increased 45 per cent He declared
that the bill was sectional in that everv cotton
planter could get hoop iron foi his co'ton ties
free of duty, while the faimors of the West
must pay for the same iron 12 cents a pound
if hew shes to bind hi* thatch or his pail
There were other strange features to the bill
It placed i dutv of 2 cents a pound on white
lead, while orange mineral made from white
lead was reduced to 154 cents a pound. Colors
and paints were made dutiable at 20 per cent,
while the manufacture of them weie dutiable
at lb per cent
What in the world had the bill done for the
peopie anyway' What did it give the fiimer*
Lvery thing he raised was put on the free list
and every thing he bought was dutiable except
sheep dip Tin plates were made free They
ware made of 97h per cent of sliest non and
2\C per cent tin Tin plates were made fiee
ind sheet iron was dutiable at 2 cents a poun 1
He ght spend two hours pointing oi tisucb. m
cons stencies, but he left that for
4he five
minute debates
Turning to the revenne part of the bill, he
cr ticised the provision repealing the law which
authorized the destruction of illicit stills, al
lowing them to be preseived for future viola
tions of the law The bill also provide a, in case
man was arrested for ill cit distilling, that
the judge should look after his well being and
comlort while in prison That provision aid
not apply to any other class of criminals There
was one feature of the bill, which was not by
any means its worst feature,but which of itself
was enoigh to defeat the entire measme, and
that was tho substitution of the ad valorem
system of assessment for the specific system
Iheie was not a single nation excep* England
that imposed ad valorem rates on 'jnported
articles and England had abandoned that ex
cept upon one article for the reason that there
can be no honest administration of the revenue
law as long as the value of the imported article
was to be left to be ascertained experts
thousands of miles away from the point of pro
duction
Passing on to a discussion of the general ef
feet of the protection system on the people, he
said he cared not whether the present prosper
ous condition of the country was the result of
protection or not The fact that that condition
had come with piotection ought to make Con
gress hesitate before it abandoned the system
New England prosperity was due laigely to the
protective tariff, and her i rospenty had been a
positive benefit to every one of the b0,0O0,O0J
people of the United States He cited statistics
to show the large amount of the farm
products of the North and West which were
consumed in New England and asked if New
England was not a better market than old En
gland foi the people of the United States The
cotton production alone that went into New En
gland in 18b6 was/KO per cent greater 'ban all
our domestic exports to the United Kingdom
The principal trammel on the American
manufacturer was the high price for Ubor and
if the Democratic paity intended to eu ible our
mufacturers to compett with foreign manu
facturers in a neutral market it could only do
it by reducing the scale of wages in the United
State=
It has been asserted that the wages of Amer
ican labor were not higher than those of Euro
pean labor He lead a letter from Mr Bar
bour of the Barbour Spinning Company of
Paterson, N who was also interested in a
flax manafactory in Ireland, in which he said
that the 1 400 Americans in Paterson get as
much wages as the 2,900 employed Ireland
This bill,' commented Mr McKinley, "pio
poses to equalize American production with
European by bringing down American wages,
and I give you notice that you can .not do it'
He also read a letter leceived from the Smgei
Sewing Machine Company, of Elizabeth, N
and Glasgow, stating that the wages of the
American workmen were $35,000, against 818,-
000 to the employes Glasgow, where there
were one third more laborers employed.
Mr Herbert (Ala )"Can the gentleman give
us the price that a sewing woman pays for her
machine in bcotland and in New Jersey
9
Mr McKinley"I am told the prices are
about the same If any thing the machine in
Scotland costs a little more than the machine
in America." Proceeding, he said that the
country was ready for free trade the moment
European producers would bring their labor up
to the American standard. That was the free
trade the country wanted Gentlemen talked
about cheap clothing. Cheap clothing was too
narrow for a National issue. He had never had
any complaints from men in his district that
their clothes were too high.
Mr Morse (Mass.)" They did not buy of
me." [Laughter].
Mr. McKinley"If they had bought of the
gentleman from Massachusetts it would not
have made any difference. The gentleman will
know his own goods (producing a suit of
clothes) The chairman of the Ways and
Means Committee talked about the labor man
who worked ten day for $1 a day and then went
to buy a suit of clothes for $10. He found he
have bought it for $10, but the robber
manufacturers have been down to Congress and
had 100 per cent put upon the suit and he has
to go back for ten days more of toil and the use
of his muscle to earn the extra $10 to buy it. A
gentleman who beard that speech sends me a
suit of clothes I hold in my hand the bill'J
D. Williams bought of Leopold, Morse & Co.
To one suit all-wool clothes, $10' [Laughter].
And I never knew before of a gentleman en
gaged in that business selling without a profit.
This is the very $10 suit of all wool described
by the gentleman from Texas which can be
bought in Boston, Chicago, New York and other
cities for $10 at retail40 per cent, cheaper
than in I860 under a low tariff and low wages."
Mr. McKinley then turned to the tariff on the
poor man's blanket, and quoted from the-booka
of a blanket-manufacturing firm to (show that
a blanket that sold in 1860 for $10 could bought
now for $5 85. and that which sold for $13 for
$8.80. In 1860 the spinner got $6 a week, now he
got $15. The weaver, In 1860, got $4, the un
skilled finisher $4 50, and the skilled l$ To-day
they get $10, $9 and $16

was immediately surrounded by his party col*

Representative Reed Closes the Discussion
for the ProtectionistsAn Incontroverti
ble Criticism of Cleveland's Free-Trade
Ideas.
WASHINGTON, May 21 The debate on the
tariff closed on Saturday, Mr Keed, of
Maine, delivering the last appeal in favor
of protection and home industries
Mr. Reed took strong ground in favor of protec
tion Referring to the Pres'dent's assumption
in his message that the
amount of duty on pro
tected goods is paid by
the consumer and goes
into the manufactur-
ers' pockets, he said
if it were true, accord
ing to statistics, the
manufacturers' profits
would be enormous,
and men acting on it
ought to wipe out the
tariff instead of a mere
reduction of 7 per cent
as is proposed in
the bill. Wealth comes
from a man's in
dustry. Diversified industry which protection
fosters gives the needed opportunity and com
petition gives the lowest prices
If it be true that by having their goods manu
factured abroad the people of the United
States as a whole would become richer and
more prosperous, would have their houses
better furnished, their tables spread with
finer linen, and covered with more health
ful food, if their bodies would be protected
by warmer woolens-irom the cold of Maine
and by finer clothing from the burning sun
of Texas, if they would, on the whole,
and from generation to generation, enjoy mora
of the comforts and luxuries of life, and would
themselves be more intelligent, more inde
pendent, and better fitted to be the citizens
of a Republic already great, and destined to
be mighty beyond all former dreams oj em
pire, then ty all means sink National preju
dice, burst the barriers of provincial narrow
ness, and with one accord adopt not merely
the present bill, but such legislation as would
tie Die the spindles of Europe and* destroy our
own, such measures as would put out our fur
naces and illumine those beyond the sea
Napoleon was right when he said that Europe
must be Cossack or republican, Lincoln was
right when he said the United States must be
either free or slave The house divided against
itself has to unite or fall The revenue reform
aigument was either false pretense or covered
the whole ground Protection was either in
its essence a benefit or a curse
The President was the leader of the Democ-.
racy He was also the dispenser of patronage,
and as he was rapidly shaking the dust of Civil
Service leform off his feet he was assuming oon
ti ol over his party There was but one free
ti ade and the President was it3 prophet
Theieare remarkable figures to be deduced
from the Piesident message, figures which
must light up the pathway of Democratic duty
with the electric light of conscience In 1887
$40,000,000 of woolen goods were imported,
paying $27,000,000 of duties, 40 per cent,
on cost and duties This went to tho
Government Three hundred and fifty
six millions of domestic woolen manufactures
were brought that same year by the impover
ished American people Under the radiant
light of the message, it would be seen that
$143 000 000 of that money went into
the gaping pockets of manufacturers and
were lost forever to the down trodden
people We imported $31,000 (TO worth of silks,
we manufactured $46,OOJ,000, of which $lt,
500 000 lined the purses of the plunderers
The same story could be told of every pro
tected industry, until the total of more than
1000,000,00J of the people's money rolls
into the pockets of these licensed robbers of
the poor If this message from our ruler
be true every factory is the abode of
a robber baron, more fell and suie
than ever swooped down a European hill
side to harry a cavalcade of honest merchants
In every mine lurked a more dreadful
giant than ever before %melled the blood of an
Englishman But what do the friends of vir
tue propose to do with these wicked peopie9
The castles of the marauders were still to
smoke up on the hill tops, antl the tall chim
neys were still to break the sky line of this
unhappy country? They are to be allowed to
rob within 7 per cent of what they rob now,
and as ft compensation they were to be let
loose upon the markets of the world, where,
according to the learned chairman, they were
to ~eap larger wealth and pile up statlier mill
ions
If the President was right, and the gentle
men did not dare to doubt him, an annual trib
ute was paid protected manufacturers out of
the pockets of the people, more impoverishing
than ever was exacted by an Oriental despot
In the race of duty to fiee the people from this
iron yoke, you gentlemen stand higgling
about the amount of the tribute Instead of
$47 for every hundred they proposed to give $40
of the peonle money, and throw into the trade
the markets of the world If it be a tribute,
be bold and sweep it away Wh
did they hesitate' Was it because they
ciared not be caught lowering the wages of the
laboring men who have votes? Is it out of
mercy to the capitalists that you falter? Do
you say there is capital invested under our
laws, and we must keep faith with those who
have invested it? Whether faith should be
kept with such vampires, is for you to say
But suiely no belter faith need be
kept than to pay back eveiy cent they have
invested If the President be right, and John
Randolph Tucker be right, If the honorable
and gallant member be right, if S Moore,
who fixes the tubute of 1882 at $1 000,roo,000
more than any of us, be light, if they all be
right, then every yeai more than $1,000,000,000
come out of the people for these men
He did not propose to defend protection It
vast gi owth within the last quarter of a cen
tury, defended it better even than eloquent
orations Russia, the granaiy of Europe had
abandoned free trade, with the stirring result
that, whereas, in 1876, before the duties were
raised she bought 8 000,000 hundredweight
of British metals and paid therefor $30,000,
000, she got the same quantity in 1884 and paid
only $17,000,000 for it Austria Gei many, Ita
ly, Mexico and the Dominion of Canada, that
child of Britain herself, had all joined the army
of protection It was the instinct of humanity
against the assumptions of the bookmen. I
was the wisdom of the race against the wisdom
of the few
For a nation to get out of itself, or out of the
earth, all the wealth there was in both it was
not necessary for the nation to buy cheap or
sell dear That concerned individuals alone.
What concerned the nation was how to utilize
all the work there was in men, both in muscle
and brains, of body and of soul, the great en
terprise of settling in motion the ever gratuit
ous forces of nature
Here in th3 United States were 60,000,000
people, with all the varied characters their
numbers indicate Some had facultiesfitfor
farming some for the management of machin
ery, some for invention The problem before
Congress was what system would get from all
these creatures, so different from each other,
the maximum of work and wealth and wisdom
There was. only one way to get tne best work
out of men, and that was to give each the work
he can do best. You can only accomplish this
by diversifying industry To diversify industry
completely a country such as ours, there
was but one way given under heaven among
me To enable the American people them
selves to supply all their wants you must give
and assure to the American people the Ameri
can markets.

SLAUGHTER OF TRAMPS.
A Brakenian Tells How the Gentry of the
Road Steal Hides.
Statistics of the number of tramps
killed annually in lailroad accidents
aie appalling, but no attention is paid
to this wholesale slaughter of an un-sale
desuable element of society. However,
for the amount of tiavelmg done by
the worthless gentry of the road, the
accident rate is very small. Scarcely a
passenger or fi eight train makes a trip
but one or more tramps ude on the
trucks or "blind baggage." Should an
accident occur they aie veiy liable to
be injured, but the number of maivel
ous escapes they make causes one to
imagine they lead chaimed lives. 1
was on a tiam two weeks ago when I
saw a ti amp escape in a sviy that was
simply marvelous. Onr tiain ran on
a switch and into a fi eight. The two
engines were badly smashed, and the
first passenger car was piled on top
of the freight engine. The engineer
of the former and both fiiemen were
killed. When eveiybody had rushed
out and the true state of affairs was
discovered, there emerged from undei
thecals piled on the engine, a badly
scaied tiampwhowa not injuied at
all. He walked away veiy calmly after
shaking himself, and no doubt left on
the trucks of the next tiain. These
fellows become veiy expert at riding in
difficult places. As the cars are ex
amined at most stations, they have to
hide between the trucks or get off. In
the latter case they run under the car
and icsume their place while the train
is moving. "Blind baggage" is another
method of stealing a nde. This is a
technical phrase to designate the plat
form of the baggage-car that is coupled
to the engine. There is no entrance to
the car, and hence when the train starts
at night the tramp runs and jumps to
the platform, where he can remain un
seen until the next station, where he
jumps off as the train slows up. He is
safe from the conductor and bi akeman,
and is only in danger of discovery from
the engine. The fireman and engineer
if tender-hearted will not disturb him,
but otherwise they pelt him with coal
and throw water upon him until he is
glad to leave when the train stops. If
he has luck he can ride all night more
safely than on the truck, but he gets a
dose of cinders and smoke from the
engine.St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
